The corporate HQ building is very nice with an on-site gym, health kiosk, cafeteria, and internal courtyard. Job flexibility was a huge perk – it was an 8-5 office job but management was okay with occasionally working from home (as long as that privilege didn’t get abused). My managers were usually appreciative for hard work and were liberal about complimenting on a job well done. Most corporate HQ employees complained about the bene’s, and while it’s true they weren’t super great, I thought they were satisfactory (pretty standard health, dental, vision plans… moderate 401k match.. paid time off which is accumulated and increases at a faster rate the longer you are employed). For the most part I didn't have to work on the weekends.
Minpunten
The salary was below the industry average across all departments, which paved the way for extremely high attrition because folks realized they could go down the street and make 20% more as soon as they got some experience under their belt. Seriously, the only way someone would get a raise or promotion in my department was when a more senior person would leave and then management would dump all of their old work on top of your current workload to fill the void... even then, pay increases were not proportional to the additional workload. Management tried to squeeze every bit of productivity out of each employee which often interfered with work/life balance - another factor of the high employee attrition.
